I can't think of a heading

Last night, I lay
awake for some time, thanks to being sick. I came across the thought of how I can make a post more interesting
by its intro only. How a about a poorly written, shamelessly short poem?

Tribal - surely
anything but idle.

Army - not the kind
that you’d see on Barbie.

Faux leather - handy
for every season, any weather.

High waisted short…
yeah I got nothin’

So anyways, are you in
need of a pre or mid-autumn look? I got the amazing opportunity to shoot with stunning
garments from the one (and only) The Lot; a contemporary fashion retailer, with
the taste for anything daring, trendy and fierce.

I paired a tribal
print jersey with a high waisted black short, some black army boots, a cool and
casual rounded sunnie, a cute leather bag and a striking thunder ring. (When I
reread this sentence I literally feel out of breath) I find autumn and spring
difficult, as I never, ever know what to wear during those seasons. It’s both
hot and cold, and a quick wardrobe change would not provide a happy camper.

A sweater can
definitely be too hot for summer, which makes it a good choice for a season
like autumn or spring. An army boot is always fun to play around with. I find
it quite versatile. Accessorizing has always been fun, and it, obviously, adds
that little extra something.

I have another outfit
or two on its way, stocked by none other than The Lot. Their charming little
store in Stellenbosch was too kind by helping. My model and I only had under an hour
to shoot, so we took the streets and BAM! we photographed, not caring what the
gawking pedestrians thought.

All in all, I think
this outfit is a winner. I’ll probably be back at the store. They received new
stock (winning) and it’s something I’d urge all you fashionable kids to check
out.

Before I end this
post, The Lot has a website from where you can buy online - http://ilovethelot.com/ yep. It’s that cool.
